The correct way for the Uchiha to rise

a lot of.

Although there are no unique secret techniques of the major ninja villages and clans, most of the lightning release techniques in the ninja world can be found here!

In terms of the sheer number of basic ninjutsu, even the ninja villages probably can't match the black market.

Of course, the village ninjas still rarely buy ninjutsu from the black market, for one reason only: it's expensive.

It's ridiculously expensive.

The ninjutsu that can be obtained by completing ten missions of the same level in the village is worth no less than a hundred of the same level ninjutsu in the black market!

With a tenfold difference, anyone would know which option to choose.

Even if the village doesn't have the ninjutsu you want, two or three other ninjutsu would be enough to achieve the same effect.

As for the secret techniques of ninja villages and clans, Uchiha Kiyoshi didn't believe they didn't have them either.

It's just that we can't take it out.

Over the years, has no one unexpectedly killed a ninja who possesses records of secret techniques from ninja villages and clans? Impossible.

They will definitely trade these ninjutsu techniques on the black market.

Therefore, there must be some secret techniques in the black market!

However, Uchiha Kiyoshi wasn't interested in any of that.

My path is already clear. Practicing unnecessary and messy secret techniques would be a waste of time. If it's not something I need, then I'm not interested.

Although many ninjutsu were introduced, the prices were also very high, and Uchiha Kiyoshi fell silent as he listened to the prices of each ninjutsu.

Exorbitant profits!

The ninjutsu that can be repeatedly bought and sold can actually be sold for such a high price.

I witnessed the Uchiha purge.

Previously, he only vaguely knew that knowledge materials were expensive, especially when it came to ninjutsu, which was outrageously expensive. Now he truly experienced it firsthand. With the wealth of a Kage-level expert, he could only afford to buy two B-rank ninjutsu.

Of course, he earned all his wealth when he was an elite Jonin.

But this is still very expensive; an elite Jonin's entire fortune can only buy two B-rank ninjutsu.

Even more unusual was Uchiha Kiyoshi, whose wealth was accumulated during wartime, making him far more lucrative than elite Jonin during peacetime. Furthermore, Uchiha Kiyoshi's mass slaughter of puppeteers further enriched him.

These are only two B-rank ninjutsu.

"Too expensive!"

Uchiha Kiyoshi expressed his heartfelt feelings.

If even I am like this, what about the other ninjas?

You absolutely cannot afford a B-rank ninjutsu without saving for twenty or thirty years.

Of course, if you get incredibly lucky and find a treasure or snatch a fat sheep, that's a different story.

Therefore, the survival of wandering ninjas, the real wandering ninjas, is truly difficult.

The lack of ninjutsu leads to a significant gap in combat power, which is why ninjas from ninja villages, especially those from major ninja villages, are stronger than their peers.

It's not a lack of talent, but rather a lack of resources, and among those resources, ninjutsu accounts for the majority.

Moreover, there was another point that Uchiha Kiyoshi had not considered.

That is, in accepting the task.

The Great Ninja Village has a good reputation, and its mission completion rate and quality are far higher than other places, so many clients are willing to post missions in the Great Ninja Village.

The number of missions in small ninja villages is pitifully small; it's common for a ninja to not receive a single mission in a month.

Although the black market has a good reputation, for some reason, the number of commissions it accepts has always been controlled to a certain extent.

There's a limit to the number of missions available, while the number of wandering ninjas is enormous—too many cooks spoil the broth. Sometimes, ninjas from smaller villages who can't get missions for a long time will also choose to look for missions on the black market, further increasing the number of available missions.

Moreover, the wandering ninjas mentioned here also include the group of rogue ninjas.

Since they were rogue ninjas and were able to survive the pursuit of their original villages, they must have been skilled, giving them a significant advantage in accepting missions. This resulted in genuine wandering ninjas receiving even fewer missions.

Although Uchiha Kiyoshi did not consider this point, the essence is the same.

Ultimately, it's just a matter of insufficient resources.

The resources of the entire ninja world are limited, and the number of ninjas that can be supported is also limited. On top of that, there are some outstanding ninjas who need even more resources.

However, the development of a ninja's combat strength is very rapid.

This has led to the number of ninjas frequently exceeding the upper limit that the resources of the entire ninja world can support, thus creating conflict.

The conflicts will accumulate and grow, eventually leading to war, a war that will engulf the entire ninja world!

The Second Shinobi World War was the most obvious example of a war caused by resources.

"Alas! Peace is impossible."

As long as resources are insufficient, war is inevitable.

Suddenly, a hand waved in front of Uchiha Kiyoshi.

"Do you have a choice?"

It turned out to be a receptionist.

Uchiha Sei nodded. He had already decided on his choice before coming; he had only wanted to listen in and investigate the black market's background.

"A C-rank Earth Walker, and a B-rank Thunder Fang."

Lightning Release: Earth Walk is arguably the most practical Lightning Release ninjutsu among C-rank techniques, boasting power at the pinnacle of C-rank ninjutsu. When mastered, it can even rival B-rank ninjutsu. However, this also makes it expensive...

The other B-rank technique, Lightning Fang, is just a normal B-rank ninjutsu. Its power is not weak among B-rank techniques; it's not outstanding, but it's not bad either.

The combined value of the two ninjutsu was quite high, and the reception staff trembled with excitement upon hearing the names of the two ninjutsu from Uchiha Kiyoshi.

Big order!

If I succeed, the commission I can get is enough for half a year's income.

After confirming that Uchiha Kiyoshi was right, the receptionist finally couldn't help but grin.

Uchiha Kiyoshi's lips twitched as he watched.

Are you polite?

I'm heartbroken about spending so much money here, and you're so happy? Aren't you afraid I'll lose my temper and beat you up?

"No, this is the black market, their territory. Hold back."

Taking a deep breath, Uchiha Kiyoshi calmed himself down and followed the other person to the VIP area behind the shop.

At the same time, Uchiha Kiyoshi secretly activated his mental perception using the chakra he emitted, trying to reduce the concentration of his mental energy to the minimum.

While this method is sufficiently covert, it significantly reduces the clarity of perception.

At this point, Uchiha Kiyoshi can only "see" very blurry images, clusters of pixels...

But that's enough. It's not meant for combat. As long as the opponent's location is determined, the location of the ninjutsu can be calculated.

Although his own image was blurry, it was three-dimensional, and each mosaic could be distinguished without overlapping, so it was still possible to determine the location.

Sitting in the VIP room, Uchiha Kiyoshi appeared to be waiting, but in reality, his attention was entirely focused on his own mental perception.

After the receptionist brought him here, he went out to report. In his mental perception, Uchiha Kiyoshi watched as one mosaic representing the receptionist made contact with another mosaic, and then the other mosaic began to move, eventually reaching the area where the other two chakra clusters were located.

Then, after a series of actions, the two last mosaics handed the item to the one that had arrived.

......

Finally, the receptionist led a middle-aged man dressed as a butler back to the VIP area.

Uchiha Kiyoshi knew that the scroll was on this mosaic... butler.

The two sides held further discussions on the transaction.

The final price was set at fourteen million taels.

Of these, five million were for the Earth Walk and nine million for the Thunder Fang.

Damn, that's less than two B-rank ninjutsu, yet it's almost equivalent to half of Asuma's head.

In other words, Asuma's head could only be exchanged for four B-rank ninjutsu on the black market.

Uchiha Kiyoto was almost numb.

Although he knew his idea was flawed.

The ninjas who could kill Asuma wouldn't pay money for ninjutsu. What they needed was no longer knowledge or similar information, but material resources. And while these were expensive on the black market, the prices were only so-so, unlike the outrageous prices of ninjutsu.

To put it bluntly, those who need to buy ninjutsu on the black market are all low-level ninjas, and the black market is basically the only channel for these ninjas to obtain ninjutsu, which is why they are exploited to such an extreme degree.

During the transaction just now, Uchiha Kiyoshi could clearly see the middle-aged deacon's gaze—it was the look of someone eyeing a fat sheep.

They got ripped off.

Kiyoya Uchiha also realized this.

However, having swallowed so much of my wisdom, I must eventually spit it out.

Uchiha Kiyoshi secretly hardened his heart.

We must copy as much as possible this time, otherwise we won't even break even.

It would be best to copy... cough cough... all the ninjutsu in this black market.

Yes, copy, not plagiarize.

How can something as sophisticated as a ninja scroll be described as copied?

Chapter 151 Harvest

With a heavy heart, Uchiha Kiyoshi took out the little money he had left and handed it to the other party, receiving two scrolls in return.

Since it wasn't put away, Uchiha Kiyoshi immediately began to examine it.

The middle-aged deacon wasn't annoyed; after all, it was only natural for them to inspect the goods since they had spent so much money.

The contents of the two scrolls are correct, and Uchiha Kiyoshi can tell from them that the ninjutsu in the two scrolls are also the latest versions.
